no-one has to die, kinda

(Photo credit: nodoca)

The last two weeks have been a bit busy and as a result I have had little time to play, mostly nothing but tiny flash games now and then. Of those the one that stood out the most was no-one has to die. The game is quite easy as far as actual gameplay is concerned, what sticks about it is the choice-based story and the mystery that comes with it.

Being a very short game makes it kinda hard to say much more without spoiling it, so I'll just say try it out! Right away the dramatic music will fill you with the sense of urgency and you'll see it through to the end.

Kickoff - K.O.L.M.

Too much of my time is spent on gaming, I figured it would be only healthy to waste some of that time writing about it instead. Enter this blog. Here I'll talk of games I have played or have been playing, mostly games from independent developers and other lesser known entries.

To kick things off in the right way I'll end this first post pointing you in the direction of K.O.L.M., a short action-adventure flash game (it's Kind Of Like Metroid) about a robot trying to please his ominous mother. What really stands out about KOLM is it's melancholic atmosphere, which is no doubt in good part due to the amazing music by Ockeroid accompanying it all the way through. In spite of being short and relatively simple the game is very entertaining and the atmosphere so immersive that sooner or later I always find myself coming back to it, hope you enjoy it!
